Save Thousands of Dollars on Equipment Rental and Replacement
Hospitals waste thousands of dollars every month on equipment rental and purchases because they are unable to effectively manage the assets they currently own. Equipment and supplies are often misplaced, unreturned, or hoarded by staff to ensure availability when needed.
Aethon provides state-of-the-art asset tracking and recovery solutions that allow hospitals to stay on top of their assets, knowing where they are at all times and retrieving as necessary. The optional TUG® asset tracking application leverages interference-free RFID (radio frequency identification) technology to locate tagged missing equipment throughout the hospital, saving thousands of dollars in purchase and rental expenditures while reducing staff time normally wasted on searching for equipment when needed.
